Just crossed 1PB total upload, felt like bragging a bit. I'm sure others who have been at this for years and years would put my numbers to shame, but I was excited to see that 4th digit tick over! :)
Waow. Take a bow
You are a saint. Thanks for giving back to the community.
Please also share over i2p network
I see qbittorrent has "experimental" support for i2p, but I would need to look into what all that setup entails.
Holy shit. You absolute legend.
Congrats, that's a lot of Linux distros you have uploaded.
Don't forget Big Buck Bunny!
That’s a lot of Linux distros and libre office downloads!
I get the joke, but it's weird for me that my highest ratio is for a Debian 13.3 ISO - 767MB down, 13.85GB up
My highest ratio on a transfer is on one I had for almost a year and a half and it's 48.44 GiB down to 1.676 TiB up, which amounts to around 490 for ratio. Everybody loves this collection of Linux ISOs, it looks like.
Mine are the yuzu and rarbg archive
Man that ratio, truly doing the lords good work
pretty sure qbittorent downloads 1 byte of overhead for every 30 uploaded. so ignoring that, the ratio would be 54x
20:1 is crazy! Maybe I'm just interested in niche stuff, but I struggle to keep mine in the 1:1-2:1 range :(
You are doing god's works. Torrents with few seeders are important to keep alive!
If you want to increase your ratio you can just seed something popular
That's why I keep my Arch Linux ISO up to date, according to my qbittorrent stats thats one of my most popular seeds so it helps the ratio out. Plus it's really useful to have as a rescue system for when I nuke my machine 🙃
The highest on my server is over 400:1 and it's a random romcom my wife wanted. Go figure, lol
Don't you need another dozen or so TB? I thought it was 1024, not 1000, to the next unit
Yeah you're technically correct, which I'm told is the best kind!
Correct 1 PiB = 1024 TiB. That’s why the lower case i is shown to denote they’re using base 2 instead of base 10.
But the good news is that 1011 TiB = 1.1 PB so OP actually crossed that milestone a while ago.
I hate this shit. Nobody gave a shit about GiB until companies just had to enshitify hard drives. When I was a kid 1GB was 1024 MB end of discussion, nobody was counting anything in base 10.
Doing the lords work
Ahoy! Thank you for your service!

Mine actually says PiB, which is fun.
Best ratio torrent is Dune 2021 with a ratio of 4523:1 😅
To be fair, this is on a machine that runs 24/7 and has been active for 3 years now.

4523 is insane! Like I mentioned in another post, my top is about 400:1, and that's romcom I've never even heard of, but that my wife wanted lol
Wow! I hit 100TB a couple months ago after about 8ish months of running it. 1 PB is truly incredible
Very nice. public or private trackers? I can never get any upload on private
All just public trackers. I haven't been able to get into any private invites, but aside from some niche stuff, the public ones have been serving me well enough.
Did anyone send you an invite, or do you prefer the public trackers?
I don't necessarily prefer them, I just honestly haven't put much effort into getting into any private trackers.

Who is your ISP? How are they ok with this?
Honestly at least in US the ISPs couldn't care less until a studio or something comes after them. But I have qbittorrent bound to a VPN, which is enough.
I was thinking more about the 1 PB upload. Most ISPs here would complain about that.
Gotcha. Yeah, I just have a standard 1gig residential fiber connection with unlimited data from a large US telco. I'm sure there is some provision in the T&Cs where they could cap your data, but so far they are holding to the "unlimited" statement.
My ISP throttles my shit crazy when I start any torrent... My ratio is like .02 because I can't upload anything almost ever even at 50~ mbps. I've tried the "use a random port every restart" and it is still ass. Suggestions welcome
Are you using a VPN that allows port forwarding? It took me a couple months of slow uploads to realize that was my problem.
Yeah, I use PIA and I've tried the "request port forwarding" option as well as in my firewall and modem ¯_(ツ)_/¯ my modem is from the ISP and kinda turbo shit so I was thinking of getting my own but haven't yet lol
Make sure you put the port you’re being assigned into your necessary application. Also note that it can change when you disconnect and reconnect so you periodically want to make sure the port in your application matches the port assigned to you by PIA.
I that case, I got nothing 🙁
Anyway, I know some folks just can't seed for whatever reason. No biggie. To each as they need, from each as they can provide
so you actually have no idea whether "your ISP throttles your shit crazy". it probably does not, because if you are using vpn, that would affect all your other traffic as well.
try to stop using the vpn and test the behaviour of the torrent again.
He’d be insane to complain about this if the didn’t have port forwarding setup
Even so, I'm not gonna judge. It took me awhile to realize my mistake there as well. 🍻
i'll skip over whether your assumption is actually valid and ask: in your experience, do people always act rationally and never do insane things?
how are they ok with what, people using service they paid for? they are quite okey, that is how their business works, they provide service and people give them money.
imagine they go so far that they put up ads to find more such people!
